How to Install the FYC/DYC Street Lighting Kit
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for the assembly and installation of the FYC/DYC Y-Type street lighting kit, covering cable preparation, crimping, and final component assembly.
Estimated time: 1h 30m
Tools needed:
Crimping tool, Wire strippers, Wire brush, Wood dowel
Supplies needed:
Lubricant, 13/32 by 1 1/2 inch fuse (600V 30A max) or connecting link, HM53 inhibitor or equivalent (for aluminum), Nut, Bolt, Belleville washers, Lugs
- Disconnect Power and Review Safety
WARNING: Disconnect all power before beginning installation to prevent risk of electric shock. Ensure installation is performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with all national and local electrical codes. Carefully identify the LINE and LOAD sides of the wiring and molded connector bodies before proceeding.
- Prepare Load Side Housing for Cable
Measure the load side cable's outer diameter. Refer to Table 1 in the product documentation to select the corresponding section on the load side (plug) housing. Cut off the remaining sections of the housing to match the size referenced in the 'Range' column of Table 1.
- Prepare Load Side Cable
Thoroughly clean approximately 8 inches along the load side cable end. Apply lubricant and insert the cable through the small hole in the load side (plug) housing, pushing it through a sufficient distance to permit 3/8 inch for stripping. Strip 3/8 inch of insulation from the cable end. CAUTION: Do not over strip the cable insulation.
- Crimp Fuse Holder to Cable
Insert the stripped cable end into the crimp barrel of the fuse holder and crimp it securely. Refer to Table 2 in the product documentation for suggested crimping tool and die specifications based on the conductor size.
- Assemble Fuse Holder into Load Side Housing
Lightly apply lubricant to the outside of the fuse holder. Place the wood dowel into the fuse holder socket and position the free end of the dowel against a firm surface. Push the load side (plug) housing forward until the fuse holder snaps into its locked position. Wipe off any excess lubricant.
- Insert Fuse or Connecting Link
Insert a 13/32 inch by 1 1/2 inch fuse (600 Volt 30 Amp max.) or the connecting link into the load side (plug) housing. WARNING: DO NOT use a glass body fuse.
- Prepare Y-Type Housing and Run Connection Cable
For the run connection, select and cut the correct cut-off ring on the Y-Type housing for the cable being used. Cut and bevel the cable insulation. Apply lubricant to the end of the cable and the cut opening of the housing. Slide the cable through until it extends 2 to 3 inches beyond the housing. Strip the insulation to fit the compression lugs.
- Crimp Lugs and Apply Inhibitor (if applicable)
Crimp the compression lugs onto the stripped cable ends using the proper crimping tool, ensuring the pad portions of the lugs are back to back. If using aluminum conductors, wire brush the pads of the lugs, apply HM53 inhibitor or equivalent on the pads, and then wipe off any excess inhibitor.
- Assemble Insert
Assemble the insert by tightening the bolted assembly as shown in the product illustration.
- Assemble Insert into Y-Type Housing
Apply lubricant as indicated in the product diagram. Slide the Y-Type housing up to the bottom of the line end insert. Push the line end insert into the opening of the Y-Type housing. While pulling on the cables and holding onto the Y-Type housing, slide the housing toward the line end insert. Push the line end insert until it is fully seated in the housing.
- Connect Load Side Housing to Line End Insert
Lubricate the male and female components. Insert the load side (plug) housing, with the installed link or fuse clip, into the line end insert.
